I would love for us to get Sabitzer I just think that we unfortunately missed our window. He has had an incredible season for RB Leipzig this year as well them already selling Timo for a lot and someone else brought up the French CB that will most likely go for bonkers money as well. I just don't see them selling another key part of their squad unless the fee was massive which I don't see us doing in this climate unless we sold TN and unfortunately it sounds like he would be part of player swap (like Arthur and Pjanic) if he was to be moved on. Anywho I hope i'm proved wrong because I would absolutely love to have him in our squad and I think he would be great in next to Lo Celso right in front of PH.

His contract is in the final year which will help.

I’m struggling to see why he would leave Leipzig to join us.

Because we’re not an energy drink football club that started 10 years ago? Congrats to Leipzig on a wonderful UCL run to the semis, for those with short memories we made the final of that competition last year.

I’m struggling to see why he would leave Leipzig to join us.

He was asked about Tottenham's interest a few months back:

“Oh, I’m basically open to everything. I have nothing to rule out. We will see.”
“I have been able to play in England a few times, including with the national team. I was thrilled by the atmosphere in the stadium. How the spectators read the game and celebrate the individual scenes, the fans really know about football.
“There was sometimes a tackle celebrated, sometimes a diagonal ball. I like to watch the Premier League and imagine that playing there is fun.”

Would be a wonderful signing and very ambitious.

Hard to see how we could land the captain of Leipzig at reasonable money though.

Would be a good signing imo. Demolished us in the CL. Two years left on his contract (According to Transfermarkt), so could be a cheeky attempt at getting an improved contract.

Alex Crook is terrible, as shown by the Hojbjerg stuff.

He's used as a mouthpiece for Southampton, hence the Everton stuff and that offer has been mentioned by the player's agent I believe (although the context was that he turned down higher offers to play from Spurs, Everton and Monaco were two of the clubs).

Maybe he dug out the link from March/April and took a punt that it's still ongoing, maybe he actually heard something. Maybe we lined this one up back when we played them and covid took it off the table.

We rightly hold Ali Gold and Dan KP in high regard but they've also been fed some inaccurate info from the club in the past.
